“You have nothing to feel ashamed of. I want you to know you didn’t do anything wrong. Please know that you were chosen by a monster. It’s not your fault. You didn’t ask for it and, most of all, you didn’t deserve it.”
—Writer-director Tyler Perry • In an open letter, published by The Daily Beast, to an 11-year-old alleged victim in the Jerry Sandusky case. “Do you know that at the young age of 11 you had more courage than all the adults who let you down?” he writes. “All of the ones who didn’t go to the proper authorities, all of the ones who were worried about their careers, reputations, or livelihoods. All of the ones who didn’t want to get involved. Or even the ones who tried to convince your mother not to fight. You are stronger than them all! I wonder what they would have done if it were their own child.” You rock, Tyler. (via shortformblog)
That was awesome of him to do. Watch someone talk shit about it though.

If you go make sure you put on your dancing shoes. They played there the last two times they came and I tore the floor up. :-)

Dear people in Charlotte and surrounding areas:
THE GRAMMY AWARD WINNING CAROLINA CHOCOLATE DROPS will be in Charlotte this Saturday at the Neighborhood Theatre. They fucking rock. I’m too sleepy to upload one of their songs but you can search for them on my blog or just google them if you aren’t familiar. I have other obligations that night *tear* and this will be my first time missing them coming to Charlotte but I’ve seen them twice so I’m not too sad. Please for the love of God, go see them. You will not regret it.
